Weirdest symptom everrrrrr

By far the weirdest symptom I have ever experienced was when I woke up in the middle of the night because my abdominal and 😳"private area" felt like they were buzzing. Scared the heck outta me to say the least!

  1. I don't know if this will be a comfort to you, but you are not the only member of this community that has mentioned weird sensations occuring in the abdominal region and the 'southern hemisphere', !

    I have no idea why this occurs, but you are not alone in this. I thought you might appreciate this article on a condition called Restless Genital Syndrome (yes, it's a real thing) -- https://multiplesclerosis.net/living-with-ms/have-you-heard-of-restless-genital-syndrome. You may not be experiencing symptoms that severe, but I thought you might like knowing what you are experiencing is normal. Well, normal when it comes to MS, that is!

    Thanks for sharing!

    Best, Erin, Team Member.

    1. Ohhhhh yayyyyyyyyy!😂
      Thankyou for the info!
      I hope it never happens again. I was in one of those rare moments of "a good sleep" at the time.
